Hello everyone! Next chapter is here, and it comes with some flashbacks. Finally we will know about Amara's past. At present time, we will know something else about Marcus's plans thanks to Matt.
I hope you like the reading, let me know what you think and have a nice week!
Our story starts around 24 years ago. Your mother and your father had started their last year at the High School. They also had gotten engaged, and they wanted to get married after the institute. He knew that you mother was a witch and that she was part of a coven… but he didn't matter at all. Both loved each other.
But that year a new boy arrived to town… Jonathan. He was really attractive, all the girls yearned him, but he had eyes only for a girl. Your mother.
However, she didn't pay attention to him, I think she always loved your father more than she loved Jonathan. Anyway, we discovered that he was warlock a pair of weeks later.
We discovered what he was one day when we went to the old mansion to practice a spell. We found him there when we arrived, he was practicing magic… and he was really powerful. We were completely amazed and, logically, we wanted him to join our coven.
Soon after, Victoria, that was your mother's best friend, started a relationship with Jonathan. Your mother was surprised at the beginning… I meant, Jonathan had been trying to pick her for weeks, but she didn't give importance to that fact and was happy for Victoria.
A few days later, your mother started to notice that Jonathan disappeared continuously. She started to suspect of him and began to follow Jonathan. This way she discovered that Jonathan was spending a lot of time with a strange. One night she followed them, and she found the crypt at the lake.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We were quiet for a few minutes. Matt was looking at us with a mocking smile on his face… but he knew that we could defeat him if he tried something rare, so he started to tell us what he knew.
-The Hunters have their den in a sanitarium at the outskirts of the city. I’ve been there, and believe me, whatever they have in there, it must be big. The place is some kind of labyrinth, it was impossible to find something coherent there- he said.
-Are you telling me that I released you for nothing?- Abey said. Matt started to smile and continued with the story.
-Don’t worry blonde, I don’t waste my time. Ethan warned me about The Hunters a few months ago, and he told me that they were coming for you… he was delicious by the way, thanks for turning him into human. The issue is that I heard a pair of interesting conversations in the asylum… The leader was talking about a magic object that would allow him to destroy all supernaturals… he called it “Cintamani Stone”- The vampire added. Sarah and Emilie looked surprised at us, looking for some explanation, but Abey and I were as surprised as them… If Matt was telling the truth, we had to stop Marcus quickly.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Whoever was with Jonathan disappeared when your mother entered in the crypt, he ran fast as a lightning to the exit… Your mother never met him, but Jonathan showed to her his work… an immortality spell.
He convinced your mother to help him. Your mother was the most powerful witch in our coven until Jonathan arrived, and he told her that, together, they could achieve anything they wanted.
At the same time, your father discovered that his family wasn't a “traditional family”. They were Hunters, their work was to chase witches, vampires, werewolves, and all the supernaturals they found on their way. Your grandfather discovered that Amara was a witch and tried to prohibit your father to see her again. He showed him horrible things done by the witches in the past and asked your father for help to hunt a warlock and a vampire that had arrived to the town a few weeks ago.
Marcus refused at first, his relationship with Amara was so strong, their wedding was near and, even if he didn't know about it, she was pregnant.
Weeks later, he knew about Jonathan’s plan and decided to help your father with a condition… No Hunter could touch your mother, she was only being used by the warlock.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I called Stefan when Matt finished his explanation, we needed him here. There was no answer. I tried to text him a lot of times, but he didn't reply… I needed a Plan B, and she was the only one I know who knew about magic as much as Stefan. Amara had to help us.
-“Cintamani Stone”?... I’ve heard a few legends about it, but I never heard that it could destroy monsters. I’ll investigate it- Amara answered when I told Matt’s story -I’m in the store, Can you come here? There must be some book about that Stone here- she added before hanging up. Then I went to the sitting room and told the others to leave the flat.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Several weeks later, Jonathan pretended being in love with Victoria, but he had started a secret relationship with your mother. She didn't want to cheat your father, but she felt a mystic attraction for Jonathan… I think you know what I meant, because you mother told me how you met Amanda.
Jonathan not only asked Amara for help, but also taught her another kind of magic. He told her that it wasn't dangerous, but his magic was dark and evil. Your mother couldn't see it, the more she learnt, the more she loved Jonathan.
Meanwhile, your father started his “hunter training”, he suspected that Jonathan was putting his evil influence on Amara… He was the only one who could see the truth, all of us were delighted with the power that Jonathan and his dark magic gave to our coven. But we would soon realized that we were wrong.
Soon before the incident, your mother found a way to get the immortality. She stole an elixir that would avoid the death of everyone who drink of it. There was enough for the strange, Jonathan and Amara, but the elixir was useless for Jonathan… As his client was a vampire, he needed an spell to eliminate the weaknesses of someone who was already immortal. He rejected your mother, leaving her alone and shattered… she thought that all was her fault.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We had been looking for information during all the night, it was dawning when Abey found something useful.
-Listen to this… “The Cintamani Stone is an old artefact unknown for the most of the warlocks. Oriental legends tell us that it is a Stone that can make wishes come true, but the truth is that the Stone is a magical monument to celebrate the union between humans and supernaturals in the past. The warlocks used the magic in the Stone to create the dark magic, and that made them to hide it, avoiding the expansion of this kind of magic. Since then, only the dark knows about it”- Abey read to us in an old grimoire.
-What does it mean? It seems that the last part is written in some kind of code…- Sarah asked confused. Suddenly, Amara’s eyes lit.
-That’s it!- She said while we started to look at her -At her crypt, the Grim Reaper told us that the curse she used with Stefan was “as old as the dark magic is”… I think that the Dark magic was created using that curse… If that’s true, “Only the dark knows about it” could mean that Stefan should know something about the “Cintamani Stone”- the witch explained.
All of us looked worried to each other, we needed to find Stefan, but there was something else… His magic was the darkest I’d ever seen, able to do whatever… Then, what could do the Cintamani Stone?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Days later, Marus came to the old mansion to explain all he knew about Jonathan… his dark magic, his deal with the vampire... Your mother could not believe it, but the others in the coven knew that it was true. We planned to stop Jonathan, that way The Hunters would not do anything to us. We would have defeated him if your grandfather never had intruded.
When Jonathan saw the hunters on the second floor he started his escape, throwing fireballs in all directions. A fire started in the old house. The members of the coven tried to catch Jonathan. When he went away, some of them tried to save our spells and grimoires, dying in the fire. But some of us escaped. I helped your mother to leave that hell taking her outside, where Marcus was waiting for us. When Marcus heard that his family was in the house he ran to help them… your mother tried to stop him telling that she was pregnant, but it was useless, he entered crying in the mansion. No hunter left that house alive.
Amara told us that she knew where to find Jonathan… She guided us to the lake and showed the entrance of the crypt to us. Jonathan didn't expect us, and he didn't expect what your mother did. Canalizing our power she made the darkest spell I’ve ever seen, disjoining Jonathan’s soul and body. But Jonathan cast a curse that would destroy our coven before to fall..
The next day, we buried all our fallen friends, even your father. That day, Amara knew that Victoria was going to have a baby too… They discussed about their relation with Jonathan and they never talked to the other again. Some years later, the members of the coven started to have “accidents” as result of Jonathan’s curse. Your mother’s dark magic saved her, I never did the blood covenant to join to the coven, so the curse never affected me, and Victoria renounced to her magic to survive and take care of his daughter, Amanda.
At the same time, your mother started to become insane. Her dark magic and her obsession with Jonathan were unhealthy, so the last members of the coven and the Council of Sages decided to enclose her. As all members of the Zanetti family were dead, the inheritance was all for you, so your mother moved to Marcus’s house before to be enclosed. Soon, she realized that she was getting worse, and asked me to take care of you. She made me promise that I would never tell you about the magic. You were too young and maybe you can’t remember, but this is the hardest thing she’s ever done.
I took care of you as if you were my son, but your natural power awake on the night of your 14 birthday and I had to tell you that your mother was alive.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-You decided to go away with her, and that’s all Stefan… Now you know who was your father… Or who is he. But if you want to know why is he alive you should ask your mother- my aunt said. I didn't know what to answer, my mother had told me different things about my father… but I could not blame her, her past should hurt her too much.
-Thanks aunt- I finally said grabbing her hand. And then I received a call from Amanda.
-Hi... I know, I'm sorry… What!?... Understood, I'm coming- I said while I walked to the elevator listening to the terrible news. After hanging up, I said goodbye to my aunt Rachel and pressed the button of the ground floor.

Great chapter!
I really liked that background story. Now we know how it all happened.
I hope Stefan can use his power to overcome Marcus without the dark magic consuming him.
Looking forwards to the next chapter!
